GypWall HABITO
High strength partition systems with superior fixing capability
GypWall Habito offers complete freedom when it comes to adding fixtures to a partition. With high levels of impact resistance, durability and general robustness, GypWall habito gives superior performance over standard partitions. GypWall Habito is based upon GypWall classic, but is also applied to other GypWall systems shown in this section, giving superior fixing capability with improved fire and acoustic performance and increased heights.
Key facts
- Better acoustics
- Incredibly strong
- Attack resistance
- Fix anywhere without the need for additional pattressing
- Increased heights using Gyproc Habito plasterboard
- Reduced maintenance cycles due to a highly impact board surface
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
Gypframe Floor & Ceiling channels are fixed to the concrete substrate using Gyproc Wedge Anchors (for fire rated systems) or Gyproc Hammer Fix (for non-fire rated systems).
Gypframe ‘C’ Studs are suitably fixed to abutments. Gypframe ‘C’ Studs are fitted vertically to a friction fit within the channel sections to form the framework. Studs are fitted to all face the same way.
The perimeter of the metal framework is then sealed with Gyproc Sealant for optimum sound insulation performance.
ISOVER Eco APR is added to the partition cavity for increased acoustic performance.
Score and Snap
Gyproc Habito board is cut to length by first marking then scoring a line on the face side of the board with a straight edge and a construction use knife. Then, lift the sheet off the floor and snap Gyproc Habito board along the score line.
Gyproc Habito boards are screw-fixed to framing members to form the lining. Horizontal joints in face layer boards should be backed with Gypframe GFS1 Fixing Strap or stud noggings.
